Manchester United face the prospect of falling 11 points off the title pace when they face Newcastle this weekend.

United have only won one of their past four Premier League outings, seeing them drop back into the chasing pack behind Manchester City.

Defeat to Chelsea before the international break was a bitter blow for Jose Mourinho - but there is better news on the horizon.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba and Marcos Rojo will all be part of the matchday squad on Saturday night, marking the trio's long-awaited return from injury.

From Newcastle's point of view, they can move as high as eighth with a win.
